The placement within the script of the line:
	ip route del default table main
is probably what is killing this.  When the interface is brought up, an
entry is made into the main table.  You're purging that entry.  So
arrange things so that IFI comes up AFTER the del

The lo device should be in main also.

Another possibility is that the original main table did not have the IFI
entry when you ran
	ip rule add prio ### table main

The final thing that comes to mind is that you did not even execute
	ip link set $IFI up
	ip addr flush dev $IFI
	ip addr add $IPI/$NMI brd + dev $IFI
    (or ip addr add $IPI/$NMI brd $BRDI dev $IFI) # this is the line
that populates main

IS the network reachable?!!  My $0.25 is on IFI1 being dead.  Try
	ping -c1 -I eth# 204.152.189.113
where "#" is set to the first interface.
